Innovation and Engineering in the North

As many of you may (or may not) know, I am the president of NTES (Northern Technologist and Engineering Society) in the North. We meet monthly to see how we can help to push forward the need for Engineering in Post Secondary Education. Specifically we are looking to build a school of Engineering right at UNBC.

Our belief is that those that are schooled in the North will end up staying in the north to live and work.

Often at different talks that I present I am asked, “Why Engineering? What does it have to do with Innovation?”

Watch this video where I say a quick sound bite of how they are connected:
